Cannot install Windows on my drive. He says there about to fail later.

My laptop is a Toshiba L40 - A, it is initially installed with Windows 8 OEM. Now I'm doing a new install with it with Windows 8 Pro but I'm having a problem with the hard drive. It says "Windows cannot be installed to this disk. The disk may not soon. If there is another hard drive, install Windows to another location. »

I did DISKPART with the OWN attribute and I converted it basic and DYNAMIC GPT on the MBR, but I fix again cause than others, said that conversion of BASIC DYNAMIC could cause trouble. I also did make converting back to the GPT, but the problem is still there. What should I do?

Install with Windows 8 OEM could solve the problem?

    Hi Nnrmalata,

    1. you are trying to install 32-bit or 64-bit Windows 7?

    2. What is the brand and model of your computer?

    Boot from GPT is only supported for 64-bit of Windows 7 on UEFI-based systems.

    For more details, refer to this link:

    http://msdn.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/hardware/gg463525.aspx

    If your computer does not support UEFI, back up your important data to an external drive and delete all partitions on hard drives and create a new partition.

    (a) start from the Windows 7 DVD

    (b) click on install now

    (c) in the configuration screen, click Custom (Advanced)

    (d) click on drive Options

    (e) select the partitions to format

    (f) click on Format - this will erase EVERYTHING on this partition

    (g) create a new partition, and then select a partition to install Windows on.

    (h) follow the on-screen instructions and install Windows.

    Note: Converting a hard disk partition or volume from NTFS to FAT32 requires that you reformat the partition, which deletes all the data on this subject. Be sure to back up data that you want to keep before you begin.

    You can check the link for reference:

    http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd799232 (WS.10) .aspx

    Note: BIOS change / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

    If above did not help, please refer to the steps in this link.

    Note: Backup your important data to an external drive

    Change a Table of Partition GUID drive on a main boot drive

    Contact HP support

    In most cases, recover the hard disk will solve your problems.

    If your problem persists, you may have to contact HP support. Find details of support HO in the documentation of your PC.

    After that I see above meaage the only button I can click is "Finish". Once I click on finish, then in a minute, I get a message that "recovery completed successfully.

    Hello

    Here is another solution, you can try to see if you can get Windows 7 to install correctly.

    Before you try the following, make sure that you can always read the character product activation key 25 on your label Windows COA (5 blocks of 5 alphanumeric games).

    An example of a COA label can be seen here.

    You can create an installation disk yourself using another PC - just download the good Disk Image ( this must be the version exact same origin supplied with your laptop ) from the link below and use an app like ImgBurn to burn the ISO correctly on a blank DVD - a guide on the use of ImgBurn to write that an ISO on a disc is here.  These Images are clean and a well respected source, however there are only limited versions available.

    Windows 7 sp1-iso-official-32-bit-and-64-bit

    Use the disk to perform the installation, enter the activation key of Windows on the label of the COA at the request and once the installation is complete, use ' 'phone Method' described in detail in the link below to activate the operating system -this made method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who want to just have a new installation of Windows 7 without additional software load normally comes with OEM installations.

  • Cannot install windows XP on the Satellite Pro A200-1N2

    Jin

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A200 - 1N2 PSAE3E and I don't want Vista on my laptop. I downgraded the bios to V5.30 but still cannot install windows xp and there is still no optin for SATA in the bios.

    Can someone help me?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Did you install the SATA drivers first?
    You need this driver to recognize the HARD drive!

    You must download the Intel Matrix Storage Manager. You should find it on the page of the Toshiba driver or the Intel Web site.

    You must perform the installation of an external USB FDD drive using the F6 key during the installation of Win XP.

    Hello

    I see that you have a problem in the installation of new Windows USB port. It seems that your HDD was not detected, right? It's because your laptop uses a SATA HDD.

    what you need to do are:

    1. download the driver AHCI SATA website of intel. (just google it)

    2. copy the files (size 700 KB for 6 files) into the new USB

    3. reboot and install your laptop with win 7 (dvd/usb)

    4. by the time win 7 installation reached the drive to install (none detected), click load drivers.

    5. now load your other USB SATA drivers.

    6. then will show all disks in your system.

    7. continue with the installation process.

    hope this helps.
